1930-1934 Bugatti Type 49

The 1930-1934 Bugatti Type 49 was the last -- and best -- of the single-cam
eight-cylinder Bugattis. A larger engine made a more flexible, refined tourer
than the Type 43. Bodies tended to be bigger, plusher, and more civilized as
well. Alloy or wire wheels were specified.

"Only" 80 mph was allied to
Bugatti's habitually hard suspension, but it had pinpoint-accurate controls and great
French character. Practical and versatile by Bugatti standards, the 1930-1934 Bugatti Type 49 was not really
intended for competition.
